Conteúdo: 	The present work reports the results of a statistical study of the data from digestibility trials with sheep fed 58 batches of artificially dried red clover and timothy herbage. The accura- cy in estimating the digestibility of organic matter and protein by the content of crude fibre, lignin, protein and methoxyl in the herbage was found to vary according to the species, stage of growth and time of cutting. The digestibility of organic matter in red clover was es- timated best by lignin and crude fibre, followed by protein and methoxyl. For timothy, me- thoxyl and lignin gave the best estimate. Digestible protein in red clover was estimated equally well by crude fibre, lignin and protein, whereas in timothy, protein itself gave the best estimation.
